I am an introverted, shy and also have social anxiety. Until a few years ago I just thought it was weird and that’s it. Now I still feel weird but there’s a reason why at least 😅
I have started this blog with the main idea of venting in my free time and telling you about my experiences as a shy and introverted person. I would really like to have this blog forever, and be able to see an evolution of my thoughts and in my way of seeing life. But at the same time, I am realistic and I know that I am writing on the blog in spurts: there are months that I write every day and others that I am just too lazy to think about the blog.
I find it weird to write an “about me” section without actually talking about me. But I think that this kind of anonymity is the best way to continue telling you about my awkward experiences as an introvert. Also, I think it wouldn’t add as much value because you put a face on the person behind this blog.
I think I can define myself as an open-minded person or that’s what I try. I don’t like to judge people too quickly and put too many labels, although it is something that society teaches us since we are little. I think that one of my greatest qualities is knowing how to analyze people, although that is sometimes a disadvantage. But seriously, I know how to feel the vibe of a meeting just by walking in. (I think) I know when someone is uncomfortable vs. confident, or when someone really doesn’t feel like being somewhere. Until a few years ago I was not aware that this is a quality, but believe me it is. There are people who do not realize that I am not interested in what they are telling me, even though my body language says it all; They don’t realize that I’m in a hurry down the street and still they stop me to talk about nothing exactly, or they don’t notice that I don’t feel like being in company at that moment.
Well, the case, if you want to chat with me about introversion issues or how you see life and deep conversations, the easiest way is through Messenger on Facebook @introverting. As a good introvert, it may take a few days to answer, but I always answer! 🙂
